On team struggles despite Mike Trout’s successes: “We’re not swinging the bats as a team. It puts our pitchers under a lot of pressure to make pitches. And any mistakes we had tonight they hit out of the park. Give those guys some credit, but one guy can’t carry you. Mike is swinging the bat very well, but we need some other guys to step up.”

On Jaime Barria: “That was hard work to get through 5.0 (innings pitched). It seemed like every inning there were tough outs. We got that double play ball to get out of it with bases loaded. He made some pitches when he had to, but in the fifth he left that change up just right in the middle for (Mitch) Haniger and he hit it out of the park. Some mistakes caught up to him.”
